    Contributed by Freddy Fritz on May 17, 2024

     | 1,588 views

    Acts 6:1-7 teaches us about Satan’s attack of distraction and the church’s priorities for ministry.

    Introduction Christians are not immune from trials and difficulties just because they are Christians. Conversion to Christ does not cause our problems to evaporate and disappear. Part of the reason for our continuing trials is that we have an enemy, Satan, who constantly works to cause us to ...read more

    This morning we will set aside one to serve as a deacon. This is a pattern for the church and an example for each to follow.

    Background to passage: Church is growing. Pentecost 3000 people got saved. Healed a lame man and preached the gospel, and the number of men was up to 5000 (plus women and young people).

    The Book Of Galatians – Chapter 1:2-10 - Message 2 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jan 27, 2023
     | 1,645 views

    Paul takes on the false teachers with no holes barred. Twice he states that they be accursed. This message examines the false gospel that had ensnared the Galatian churches to bring the grace of God into disrepute. True grace of God has no part in keeping the Law.

    THE BOOK OF GALATIANS – CHAPTER 1:2-10 - MESSAGE 2 This message continues from Part 1 (A). PAUL’S COMPANIONS IN UNITY AND CONFIRMATION {{Galatians 1:2 “and all the brethren who are with me, to the churches of Galatia.”}} This wonderful truth of brotherhood strengthens the purpose of the ...read more

    Sermon # 7 - Time To Stop Murmuring Series

     | 4,203 views

    Do we find ourselves complaining and murmuring about many things? Why do we do so, and how can we stop doing this? This sermon will help us examine ourselves in the light of God’s word.

    If we as a church today desire to resemble the early church, and if our aspiration is that people should be added in great numbers, then it is only appropriate that we not only evaluate ourselves in the light of God’s word, but also investigate to see what the early church did differently that made ...read more

    Minister On Purpose Series

    This message looks at ministry or service. “Every believer isn’t a pastor, but every believer is called into ministry. God calls all believers to minister to the world and the church. Service in the body isn’t optional for Christians” - Rick Warren

    This morning we’ll be viewing the purpose of “ministry” or “service.” In The Purpose Driven Life, Rick Warren says, “Growing up, you may have thought that being ‘called’ by God was something only missionaries, pastors, nuns, and other ‘full-time’ church workers experienced, but the Bible says ...read more

    Sharing Ministry Together

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 13, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,634 views

    When the volunteer workload is placed on the shoulders of just a handful of people, then these individuals get burnt out; and since they can’t do everything, then a lot of needs go unmet. Ministry is something to be shared among all believers.

    I wish to begin our message by sharing a personal account contributed by a pastor who was serving at a church in Washington State during the wake of the Mount St. Hellens eruption. This pastor said, After Mount St. Helens blew up in May 1980, [the] church needed cleaning up. Ash was in the ...read more
